what is a resin?

[Dwinabeana]

Thank you for the video - very helpful but would be better without the music which was VERY loud (at least on my computer) and distracting. I couldn't must the video cuz then I'd miss your words but it was far too loud and unnecessary - your words were great!

[txkitten1]

thank you! This is one thing I havent tried! always looking for a new craft!!!!

[craftychica]

A cooking shop! on clearance, even better!

[mestupgirl08]

I am just wondering where you got the card suite mold that you used?? BTW like the video!

[craftychica]

Try Ice Resin, it mixes to a perfect consistency!

[nothankyouverymuch]

My resin isn't that liquid! Any tip on making it more liquid? Thanks! Also, that mold is amazing! <3

[TheErikasweet]

what is the watery thing

[craftychica]

I used a Dremel...



[TheNatasiaDiaries]

What did you use to drill the holes with?

[craftychica]

yup, two-part resin!

thanks!

[craftychica]

it's regular glittter...

[PINK0510]

SO ITS A REGULAR KIND OF GLITTER OR SPECIAL GLITTER FOR RESIN PROJECTS?

[hotgluegunfun]

i wanna work with resin but im a newbie with such alien terms as 'catalyst' 'epoxy' or just mixing 2 chemicals together at room temperature and then worrying about it heating up and whatever else resin does. Oh and are you broke from the 32.95 dollars at michaels for a 8 oz jar of resin only. Id love to do this though. OH and it smells.

[shelby1262]

Sooooo cool love it thanks for shareing!!



[craftychica]

i used a handheld dremel...

[melehen1565]

Hi there, how did you get the little hole in it to hang the charm?

[MissDucttapegal]

Hey! I was wondering if you wanted to trade? I really need resin molds, because NONE of the stores around me have any. Do you want to?

[CraftitKawaii]

[Kathychan60]

@CraftitKawaii but su is a clover not spade

[CraftitKawaii]

@Kathychan60

[Kathychan60]

@CraftitKawaii oh ok

[craftychica]

[IceDaker0]

[656Rajan]

[craftychica]

[LillyMunster1357]

[craftychica]

[estefanyaitana]

[craftychica]

Hi! You can get ICE RESIN, it rocks!

[04plor]

where did you buy the resin at? and when you buy it does it says resin on it?

[Soleilmoon88]

advice .... always use gloves, mask and goggles when working with resin it is toxic to stratospheric levels ...

[jalapenopringle]

[Nolavalamp]

[craftychica]

It is, but I am always working with resin so I always have leftovers so I put them to use!

[exvxn]

[thenextangusyoung]

Im the Glitter Queen

[xWhaaa]

[craftychica]

I used a dremel and spray gloss varnish!

[ShroukiePoo]

how do you make holes in them? and how to make them shiny! xx

[musiclover3918]

Where did you get the mold

[LaurenisinWonderland]

I love the mold! :)

[craftychica]

you spray it with high gloss varnish and it comes out clear and shiny! :-)

[strawberryFUSION]

did you sand the finished product? it looks polished and smooth!

[PandasNoMore]

I know this may sound weird but you have a very crafty voice :3 it sounds warm and inviting.

[KraftyPomeranian]

resin? um plz help me out where do you buy it,is it expensive? is it the same resin as you would put on a bow of a viola, violin, cello,(exc.)?

[LeakFreak]

@KraftyPomeranian That would be ROSIN aka tree sap usually from a pine. RESIN is like plastic that doesn't need heat. It's a light weight polymer, like epoxy. You have to be careful when mixing it, it comes in two bottles that once mixed together HAVE to be used then. You can't save it. Which is why she made the charms. Have you ever been to a restaurant that had things on the table under wheat looked like glass or ice? It was resin that was poured on. Expense will depend on where you live.

[squiddiez]

What varnish do you use, if you mind me asking? :D

[Lbriano]

@crazyfrend you can get the resin at Michael's. I tried this tip and already made several charms but the ones I made in a silicone mold came out with a rather non-glossy finish (if any body has a tip to make them glossy please let me know!) and the ones made in the jewelry molds came out very shiny!

[ahhmaya1234]

@Lbriano Hi! Hot them with a coat of high gloss spray varnish! Ultra shiny!

[kaymac13]

How did you put the hole in the charm?? Great Video

[krazyfrend]
